Can I take it then that, on balance, you prefer music to have a FUNCTION? You know - a defined purpose?
I would say I prefer relativity.

It has to relate to the music & if it also relates to me then even better.

There lies the appeal of music forms such as Reggae & Soul & hip-hop & in it's earlier forms JAZZ.
